Among our five senses, we rely mostly on audition and vision to perceive an environment. Our ears are able to detect stimuli from all directions, especially from obstructed and far-away objects. Even in smoke, harsh weather conditions, or at night â situ ...
The complete radiation field pattern of a vertical Hertzian dipole antenna on or above a lossless or low-loss dielectric half-space is studied using a rigorous Sommerfeld formalism. The reflected fields in the air above the interface and the subsurface fie ...
We use spherical cap harmonic (SCH) basis functions to analyse and reconstruct the morphology of scanned genus-0 rough surface patches with open edges. We first develop a novel one-to-one conformal mapping algorithm with minimal area distortion for paramet ...
The scribe and break technique (or dicing) is a widely employed method in the industry of semiconductors to separate infrared laser diodes made from gallium arsenide (GaAs). The scribing step allows to create a precursor crack which is then propagated duri ...
In this paper, we analyze the grounding resistance of a vertical grounding rod located in an elevated terrain. Tall structures such as wind turbines and mobile phone base stations are often installed in remote and hilly locations to gain more power or to f ...

Localization of a set of nodes is an important and a thoroughly researched problem in robotics and sensor networks. This paper is concerned with the theory of localization from inner-angle measurements. We focus on the challenging case where no anchor loca ...
The results are described of measurements of the mean and fluctuating forces acting on low aspect-ratio triangular prisms placed vertically on a plane, having isosceles triangular cross-section with 60∘ or 90∘ apex angles and aspect ratios ranging from 1.0 ...
This paper reports on an accurate and rapid method to compute the onset voltage for a single or for an array of electrospray emitters with complex geometries and on the correlation of the simulation with experimental data. This method permits the exact det ...
A new 3 degrees of freedom (dof) structure is presented. It features rotation on two axes with a fixed remote center of motion (RCM) i.e. it always aims at the same point. The third axis is a linear movement in direction of the fixed point. This type of ki ...
